Collagen stimulators, clinical standards, and the regulatory maze

In this episode of HealthCert's The Aesthetic Shift podcast series, Kelly Beasy sits down with Naomi Grayson — registered nurse, educator, and co-founder of Pinkit Medical — to explore the evolving world of regenerative aesthetics.

Naomi shares how her clinical background shaped the development of collagen-stimulating treatments, why skin quality is becoming central to modern aesthetic practice, and what clinicians should understand about choosing and using these products safely.

This episode also touches on the often-misunderstood regulatory landscape in Australia, including how topical products differ from TGA-regulated medicines, what clinicians should be checking before introducing a new product, and why transparency from suppliers matters more than ever.

If you are curious about where collagen stimulators fit into contemporary practice, how practitioners can approach education and product selection with rigour, or what the industry shift toward skin-focused treatments means for clinics, this conversation is worth a listen.
